Trips and Events

On the Trail with God

Our life of faith is a journey. Join us for a day of exploring the path as we prayerfully walk some of the trails at Camp Swatara. We will look at preparation for the journey, pay attention to how God meets us on the path of our lives, and learn from scriptural examples of journeys, as we watch for God’s surprises along the way. The pace will be easy, with time for personal and group reflection at spots on the trail. The day’s trail guide will be Karen Haldeman (spiritual director, retreat leader, and friend of Camp Swatara). Registration fee of $20 includes lunch.

Please bring a small knapsack or bag containing a water bottle, your journal, and (if desired) your Bible to carry with you throughout the day. Sturdy footwear is highly recommended. You might consider bringing a towel to sit on where there are no benches.

NOTE: Walking will be easy to moderate on unpaved trails, with an optional difficult hike to the Rock Pile after lunch. Outdoor seating and restroom facilities will be limited.
